To know Bryce Dallas Howard is to respect and genuinely, truly enjoy her company.

She was raised by director Ron Howard and writer Cheryl Alley with an emphasis placed on what was inside, as opposed to her admittedly very beautiful exterior.

“What’s been nice for me is that my mom, growing up, she really focused on character. She wanted us to have character as people. Whenever I would get a compliment about my looks, she’d say, ‘Thank you, but her personality is really the best part of her.’ Or my work ethic,” she said. “Because that was my experience growing up, and because I don’t have much to worry about in the scheme of things — my approach is not to think about it too much.”

“It still happens. It happened last week and it happened the week before that. People within the industry will say, ‘Hi, we met each other before,’” she laughed.

The mom of two — Beatrice, 6, and Theodore, 11, with actor hubby Seth Gabel — is also outspoken and socially conscious. Take the makeup she sported during her “Jurassic” promotional tour. The color choices were no accident.

"Our Pride makeup! June is Pride month and I hadn’t done a post yet. I was wearing a lot of black and we had to bring some color into this. We just made sure to hit every color,” she said.
